Never ever watched that program on TV but I liked this video. I wonder what his CO's reaction will be when he watches this. I know some that would be truly and deeply dissatisfied seeing this especially when they are on government time and with government property...

Wasn't available in Canada or Australia, either. I think they subtitle the BBC for the Colonials like us, and as you'll see from the clip, subtitles might be a bit ~ah~ tricky. :D

Thanks for the other link, Alan.

Dang Fellas...relax for a moment. I have never seen the MTV version of the show either, but think this is pretty funny in and of itself. Being a taxpaying citizen like all of you, I for one think it is nice to see some fellas in the military having some fun, especially knowing what they have to put up with day and night. They have done nothing to destroy or damage any military property and I think that if the truth be known, they are most likely doing this on their down time.

Yeah, some brass higher-up will most likely see this and give the fellas a tongue-lashing at the least. I just don't see the harm in it myself.

I agree with you in parts. It’s funny etc., but that video shouldn’t have made it to YouTube. Since they are in their uniforms and inside a base (or hangar or whatever) then they are still on government time. If I was their CO I would probably say, at least “So, if you fellas have so much time on your hands, then maybe you should be cleaning the latrines just for a change”.

You're always on gov't time especially on the boat but you still have to have some fun. That being said I though this was just dumb and showed no imagination. But, on the other hand.................
